Springfield White Collar Crimes

Criminal Defense for Fraud & Other Offenses

White collar crimes refer to non-violent offenses which use deceit, fraud, or any other type of illegal activity for personal financial gain. Although they do not involve physical injuries or violence, they are prosecuted and punished very heavily. Many of these crimes are federal offenses, which requires attorneys who have experience in this setting like we do.

Punishments for White Collar Crimes

The punishment imposed on a white collar crime conviction depends on the type of offense and the degree of financial damage. In some cases, a conviction for a white collar crime involves jail or prison time, as well as expensive fines. Other penalties include home detention or community confinement.

Even if the case is dropped, even an arrest for a fraud related offense can lead to your reputation being tarnished. We work to help protect your reputation and see that your life isn't negatively affected by being involved with this type of charge.
